The best place ive EVER come across in my search for beer retailers in SA. Definatly the best selection of craft beers your going to find in San Antonio.

Fairly long wall of Single bottles(large and small) with the best selection ive seen and an even longer wall of 6 packs that is really nice. Pretty much all my big favorite brands Avery, Great Divide, Chimay, St. Bernardus. I found a lot of beers that i had been dying to get!

Its a little out of my way going there but with the selection im going to be going there very often. As for prices FEW are overpriced but im not complaining, The rest of it is very reasonable and almost HALF the price on a couple of beers i was buying at other places.

Thats just the beer section, They have a huge wine section and the rest of the store I hear has a lot of really good stuff and good selections.

I didn't talk to any employees or ask any questions but i put a 4 for service because our cashier was nice.

This is probably the best place to get beer in san antonio. Great selection of singles and lots of belgiums. Six pack selection is pretty good too. Staff never really goes by the beer section, they tend to stay in the wine section. Everything is kept in coolers and they usually had a Texas beer on sale

Overall compared to other cities its not the best place, but in san antonio which has like the most limited beer stores out of the major texas cities, this is as good as it gets.

Perspective is an interesting thing, you know. This may very well be the best beer store in San Antonio, and yet, it doesn't really hold a candle to the really great beer stores I grew accustomed to in the greater Washington, DC area. But you take what you can get, and this is what I got right now.

First of all, I love Central Market. Yes, it's overpriced (food and drink). And yes, it's a hassle getting in and out in a reasonable amount of time (unless you're just running in for beer, that is). But I love it. Something about the place makes me happy. Who knows why.

The beer selection is good, not great. Maybe it's great for Texas, but that is kind of depressing. We need to start a revolution down here to import more beers - both American craft and foreign. But what they do have is okay. Solid, if unspectacular, American craft selection (standouts for me include Great Divide, Oskar Blues, DFH, Stone, and a few others). Good Texas beer selection (Texans are very proud about our own products). And a marginal, at best, selection of foreign imports. Seriously, stocking the shelves with German pilsners and British ales does not a foreign selection make. Oh, and there's plenty of Mexican beer too. Great.

The service there has always been okay. But once, my wife went in and asked the beer steward if they had the Oak-aged Yeti from Great Divide in, and he said he'd never heard of it. That right there is the kind of store this place is. They may know the beer they're selling, but they don't necessarily KNOW beer. You know what I mean?

Sometimes, the prices are a bit spendy, and sometimes they're about right. I rated this as "reasonable" only because I don't think the prices at Central Market are "unreasonable." They fluctuate with the craft beer market nationwide. No qualms with that.

Again, let me just say, I like this place. I get most of my beer here, in fact. But it pales in comparison to what it could be if only TX beer distributors brought in more beers. Until then, it will always be an average beer store in my eyes.

Also, it would be much cooler if they sold all their beers in singles. Most of the great beer stores do this. It makes great sense from a consumer's perspective, if you ask me.

Of the two places I stopped at to look for beer in San Antonio, this was the better of the two. Selection was decent, but they didn't have a huge array of singles available, and they didn't allow you to break existing 6 packs. This was a bit disappointing to me as I was hoping to snag a variety of locals to bring back with me, but instead I was only able to grab a few. Overall though the selection was decent, with a good selection of micros and imports. A nice selection of Belgians was available as well. Definitely worth a stop if you're in SA.

This place is a mixed batch of people who know what's going on at least somewhat and people that have no idea.

The beer here is fresh as hell. I looked at that dates on some stuff and it all looked fresh. This place obviously moves a lot of beer. The selection is huge and There was only 1 beer that I found at Hills & dales but not here. I'm sure they will have it or had it at so me point though.

They have an ok selection of sixers, but I thought I would get a discount if I "mixed my own sixer." NOT THE CASE :(. Oh well.

Compared to lubbock six packs are cheap. SA stuff was under bucks and I got some rogue stuff for 8.99. It's 12.99 in lubbock.

I will be sure to make a trip here on my next visit through San Antonio.

Of all of the places that i have in Texas, this has the best selection. I have seen other places in Texas with this selection, bu the qulity of the beer I found out later was bad. All of the beers that I have had from Central Market have been in good shape. Central Market has a large selection of beers that they sell as singles. The price for the singles are reasonalble compared to other stores that I have visted. They have too many beers for me to try on my visit to San Antoinio, they carry local beers from Texas, larger Micro, and beers from all over the world, well worth the visit if in the San Antonio area.

Easily the best beer selection in San Antonio. They have a huge selection of beer, from almost anywhere. This is where you go, if you cant find the beer your looking for anywhere else. The only problem is, they are very pricey. For variety, they cant be beat, but unless you have a high paying job, or have a few extra buck laying around, this isnt where you'll be shopping. They have the build-your-own 6 pak, but that too can be expensive, as upposed to the set price that whole foods offers. Basically, this is a last resort in your beer quest.

The Central Market is a breeze to find on Broadway, but I always forget which side of the road it is on and have to either cut through traffic or turn around. Parking can generally be found, but the store is busy enough that you might not park anywhere close to the door and may end up driving around the lot a bit.

The beer is past all the veggies and more or less in a cold case in front of the meat section. Also on this trip we saw a few pallets (yep pallets) of Celebration around the store and a few others so don't only go to the cold case.

The selection is large, but could be more interesting. A real micro emphasis, but a larger single bottle selection would be a definite plus. Also in the store are some surprizes lurking in the cold case, so have a keen eye. I picked up some TX brews I had not seen elsewhere.

The service around the store has always been good. Despite an employee working the beer aisle I was never asked if I needed anything on this trip which was a bit of a letdown since elsewhere in the store they are eager to please and on other visits a few years back I was asked for assistance.

Visiting a relative who opened his home to us when we honeymooned in San Antonio in 1968. Broadway Central Market is located in the center of Alamo Heights, one of San Antonio's most unique historical areas. Not far from the Brooks Army Medical Center, I found the stores wide variety of craft beer well cared for with little sugestion of any neglect. Singles, 6 packs, and cases but I was not allowed to mix 6 packs. Food to die for! Owned by H.E. Butt Co. (H.E.B.)
One of 7 locations in the state of Texas.

H-E-B Central Market in San Antonio, known fondly by the locals in an affluent area of town as the Gucci B, has the largest bottled selection in South Texas. (Whole Foods in San Antonio, however, is catching up despite its smaller display.)

Central Market has a huge swath of dedicated coolers for craft beers and imports. Although it recently underwent a reorganization of the beer shelves, the layout is still pretty user friendly and the staff is knowledgable. The long-time beer buyer left in November, but others who work in beer and wine have more than a passing grasp on quality beer.

The store has every Belgian ale available in Texas, a host of German imports and an excellent representation of micros.

The amazing cheese section also is conveniently located nearby to do a little pairing.

Those who know the beer scene in San Antonio always said to me "Have you been to Central Market?" Well, now I have, and I highly recommend that you go there as well.

The selection is the best I have seen in the area. I picked up four different tripels, and twice as many Unibroues (including Terrible and Edition 2004). There is a veritable plethora of exotic beers to be had here. Furthermore, this is a place where only a minority of the shelf space is dedicated to anything other than craft beer. Almost all of the beers are refigerated, which is a nice touch.

I asked an employee who was arranging bottles, "Are you the beer guy?" "Yes." "Do you have Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPA?" "We're out, but I'll have to see about getting some more." Or words to that effect. I like it when employees try to please the customers.

This is my favorite Central Market location so far, mainly because this one isn't set-up like a maze. Instead of having to zig-zag through the store there are actually normal aisles. Still, this is a special grocery store with lots of produce, ethnic foods, organic stuff, and other hard-to-find specialty items. Selection is valued at Central Market which is obvious when looking at their beer selection. They have almost all beers available in this part of Texas. Plenty of imports and a better selection of American macros than the other Centrals I've been to. Plus there were more beer singles than I am accustomed to from Central Market. I didn't bother the employees, but I'm sure with this beer selection there is someone who knows something. This is to only good beer store that I know of in San Antonio, it's probably the only one you'll need.
